Updated : Flying Eagles Jet Out To Burundi 1245 PM On Wednesday

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that the Flying Eagles will have their final training session on Tuesday afternoon, starting from 1600 hours, ahead of their departure to Bujumbura on Wednesday for the Africa U20 Cup of Nations qualifier against Burundi.

The players and backroom staff will jet out to the East African country aboard an Ethiopian Airlines flight at 1245 hours tomorrow.

Coach Emmanuel Amuneke has already selected the 18 young stars that will defend the colours of the country against Burundi but will only inform the nominated players after today’s workout at the Fifa Goal Project.

Thirteen players, including Victor Osimhen, Kelechi Nwakali and Samuel Chukwueze , will certainly travel with the squad on Wednesday, meaning there are five spots remaining to be taken.

The Nigeria U20s were undefeated during preparations ahead of the qualifiers against Burundi.
